This year Yom HaAtzmaut was a little slow on account of my little broken foot bone.

We started the morning with pancakes, made by Yaron of course.

After that we continued to outside activities.

First stop – Givat Ram to watch the Air Force matas.

While waiting for the airplanes, the girls enjoyed playing soccer with their Abba while Mommy enjoyed taking photos of the lovely family.

Here come the planes! (airplane photos courtesy of Sari)

And some horsing around:

And also some selfies of Mommy with Tamtam. We love to take selfies together!

Following the energy expenditure we continued on for a bite to eat – Falafel, of course!!

Following some chocolate, stains of which are a bit noticeable around Tanar’s mouth.

From there to the park.

And then of course, one must make sure to keep the holiday observantly and have at least 1 “al ha-esh” which we did at the Suissa family. Sabba, Savta & Daniel made it back from Eilat in time to join us, Liat, Ariel and Rina. Unfortunately, no photos…

Tamar is talking in full sentences. She is so proud of herself. This.morning when I woke up she was at breakfast and announced, “mommy, i eat pancake”. (it was a waffle.)
Tamar has started walking up steps by herself. Can manage one step down but more is still hard and there is possibility of a tumble.
This week we sat at breakfast on the morning of yom hashoah. We spoke with Sari about the day – white shirt, the siren and that she would be with the gan. Then she asked, גם תמר הולכת לשואה היום?

Tamar, upon seeing a pile of chocolate balls at Sari’s gan: I need cake. Classic Tamar!
In general Tamar has started favoring the word “need”.
